Built on a single idea about execution.

Years ago, in a book club led by a mentor, 4 Disciplines of Execution was read. The thesis stuck.

Every organization has a whirlwind — the daily noise that consumes attention — and growth depends on identifying the wildly important goals that sit above it. Covey called those goals lag measures. The outcomes you actually want.

But lag measures aren't where you intervene. To change the outcome, you have to zoom in on the lead measures — the specific, controllable inputs driving the result — and seize control of them.

Most employers are watching their healthcare costs rise every year without ever auditing the lead measures behind them. The plan renews. The premium goes up. Nobody can fully explain why. That's not a market problem. It's an execution problem.

Lane Advisory Group was founded to fix it.

You already know it's broken.

Rising healthcare costs feel like a force employers can't get hold of. They can.

The system isn't broken because it's complicated. It's broken because employers buy plans without ever seeing where the money actually goes. Costs rise every year, and nobody can explain why — not the carrier, not the broker, not the renewal packet.

It takes three things to drive real change: a dissatisfaction with the current situation, a vision for a better future, and concrete next steps. Most employers LAG works with already have the first. The ASAP process delivers the rest.

COI > ROI. The cost of inaction is greater than the return on any investment.
— A guiding principle

Every year an employer renews a plan they don't understand is another year of overpriced imaging, mismanaged chronic conditions, and a pharmacy benefit quietly marking up your drugs.

The audit changes that. It shows the real drivers behind your claims. Once you see the data, you stop buying someone else's broken plan and start building your own — plugging in the right solutions for the actual problems driving your cost.

That's not a pitch. It's a process. And it starts with one conversation.

How the work gets done.

Four steps, executed in order. Each one earns the next.

01

Audit

End-to-end audit of your current dynamic, from stop-loss to pharmacy, and all voluntary benefits. We identify the lead measures driving your current outcome and surface them in the data.

02

Strategize

With access to your dashboard, we prioritize, organize, and build a strategy tailored to your plan. Not a template. Not a renewal packet. A strategy built from your data, aligned to your goals.

03

Apply

If the strategy aligns with your goals, you apply it. We execute the plan changes, the point solutions, and the workflows that move the lead measures — the inputs that change the outcome.

04

Partner

The work doesn't end at execution. We move forward as your partner, monitoring the lead measures, refining the strategy, and holding the line on cost while improving outcomes — year after year.
